Sorry I missed out on the Green Monster.

But Marty, where is your Lotus 56?

My favorites are the STP and the Chrysler as they are the only ones I know as being models of 1/1 true turbine cars. I'm guessing that the LSR cars are also.

  Where's he Lotus 56?  It's unpurchased and missing from my collection!

  Yes, the LSR cars all had jet turbine engines.

@marty-johnson It is really a terrific model. The only "flaw" is that the yellow on the LF tire doesn't stand out like on the 1:1. And of course the model is diecast, so it feels solid. Don't get me wrong, I love the Replicarz '67, but it would have been wonderful if Carousel 1 had made one.

@paul-rouffa - I've had this Bandai 1:12 model three times.  It is the most detailed of the '67 STP Turbine car I've ever seen.  I sold all of them on eBay.

That always looked like a great model. Just what I need, another scale to collect. LoL  

By the way, what is your seller name on eBay?
